Dear David and friends:
I've got the proof (I think). I launched galeon and kmail and firefox
and mozilla and epiphany from the konsole. NO PROBLEM. But
when I launched Konqueror from the console, I got an obvious
error message. See screenshot below:

Am I right to say that this is the smoking gun?
